Course Description:
Our resourcing series is about reconnecting with our Essential resources that are beyond our conditioned mind and ego defenses. These are fundamental human virtues such as love, compassion, courage, wisdom, joy, presence, innocence and others. In this course we will reconnect with the Red Essence and the resources of courage, strength and vitality and how we can implement them in our own healing and in working with clients.
Course Goal:
The aim of the course is to teach the students about the Red Essence, how to recognize the psychological issues due to the lack of this quality or because of the way we got cut off from it. We also teach how to work with resourcing clients with this core quality.
Learning Objectives:
After completing this course the students will be able to:
1. Explore the Red Essence through inquiry, mirroring and feedback
2. Facilitate vitality and aliveness through exercises with breath, movement
3. Employ healthy aggression and anger release as a therapeutic resource
4. Guide clients to sense and follow their own authentic impulses and healthy autonomy
5. Contrast healthy aggression with toxic anger
6. Illustrate how to work with the inner critic by setting a boundary and saying no to its attacks
